| When
looking for a way to cover an unattractive crack in a wall,
or an old rusty shed, look no further than wall ivy. Wall ivy
makes perfect cover for any vertical surface that needs to look
better. There are several types of wall ivy to choose from,
and each has its own characteristics and limits when it comes
to where to grow them and how. |
| Most
wall ivies are easy to care for, needing only moist soil and
partial sun. One of the most flexible wall ivies is the Boston
ivy. This wall ivy will grow up to a height of sixty feet, or
roughly five stories of a building. This wall ivy is the most
common choice for business or home owners. The Boston ivy is
easy to care for and thrives on many types of soil.
Another important note of wall ivies is that
most are evergreen. This makes them suitable to cover just
about anything year round, and they will cover anything in
their path. Unlike deciduous vines, which lose their leaves
and leave behind a mass of unattractive stems, wall ivy will
retain the green leaves throughout the winter season.

| One
important note to wall ivy is that it will cover anything. This
includes other plants that may then die from lack of proper
sunlight. It is important to keep wall ivy trimmed to maintain
control of this versatile plant. |
